It'll be a walkover. Championship side against second.
Ahem! Would you like some whipped cream on that humble pie? ;)

They were cheering quite loudly for supposedly only a few people. :unsure:

Unfortunately Gus Johnson was indeed the commentator today and I totally agree that he's terrible.

As for Ian Wright, I've actually been very impressed by him. He has given some useful insight.

I thought he was good to. Not only explaining the what was happening and why, but giving clear insight into what either team should be doing to improve their game.

You'd think after all these years of supposedly inferior teams raising their game, that people would remember that it is the FA Cup, and the big team coming in thinking they had an easy game has been the downfall of many over the years.

Well yes they did, and it was awful again.

Whilst I along with everybody else would like to see Villa go down, looks like it will be Wigan.

Sunday was not good for them.

Wrighty sucked on Saturday!

After the ball clearly struck a player's leg and went out for a corner - even in the replay, he insisted that it never touched him - the darn thing made a 90 degree turn when it hit him!!!

Also, why does he insist that the best thing to do for EVERY free kick outside the box that "he needs to belt it into the wall and hope for a rebound"??????

Idiot.

Villa? I wanted Newcastle or Sunderland to go down. :)
